Numeric labels and major tick marks are shown at intervals of 100 feet. Minor tick marks are at intervals of 20 feet. The current altitude is displayed in the black pointer. The Selected Altitude is displayed above the Altimeter in the box indicated by a selection bug symbol.
FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS SYSTEM OVERVIEW A magenta Altitude Trend Vector extends up or down the left of the altitude tape, the end resting at the approximate altitude to be reached in 6 seconds at the current vertical speed. The trend vector is not shown if altitude remains constant or if data needed for calculation is not available due to a system failure.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS VERTICAL DEVIATION NOTE: The Glidepath Indicator is only shown for aircraft with GIA 63W Integrated Avionics Units when FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS WAAS is available. EIS The Vertical Deviation Indicator (VDI; Figure 2-13) uses a magenta chevron to indicate the baro-VNV vertical deviation when Vertical Navigation (VNV) is being used; the VDI appears in conjunction with the “TOD within 1 minute” alert. Full-scale deflection (two dots) is 1000 feet.
FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS SYSTEM OVERVIEW HORIZONTAL SITUATION INDICATOR (HSI) FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS The Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) displays a rotating compass card in a heading-up orientation. Letters indicate the cardinal points and numeric labels occur every 30˚. Major tick marks are at 10˚ intervals and minor tick marks at 5˚ intervals. A digital reading of the current heading appears on top of the HSI, and the current track is represented on the HSI by a magenta diamond indicator.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS The Arc HSI is a 140˚ expanded section of the compass rose. The Arc HSI contains a Course Pointer, To/From Indicator, a sliding deviation indicator (the To/From and deviation indicators are combined), and a deviation scale. Upon station passage, the To/From Indicator flips and points to the tail of the aircraft, just like a conventional To/From flag.
FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS SYSTEM OVERVIEW Navigation angles (track, heading, course, bearing) are corrected to the computed magnetic variation (‘Mag Var’) or referenced to true north (denoted ‘T’), set on the AUX - System Setup Page. When an approach referenced to true north has been loaded into the flight plan, the system generates a message to change the navigation angle setting to ‘True’ at the appropriate time.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS TURN RATE INDICATOR FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS The Turn Rate Indicator is located directly above the rotating compass card. Tick marks to the left and right of the lubber line denote half-standard and standard turn rates. A magenta Turn Rate Trend Vector shows the current turn rate. The end of the trend vector gives the heading predicted in 6 seconds, based on the present turn rate.
FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS SYSTEM OVERVIEW When a bearing pointer is displayed, its associated information window is also displayed.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS COURSE DEVIATION INDICATOR (CDI) NOTE: If a heading change of greater than 105˚ with respect to the course is made, the CDI on the Arc HSI FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS switches to the opposite side of the deviation scale and displays reverse sensing.

APPENDIX D SYSTEM OVERVIEW FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS If a particular aspect of G1000 operational capability is not addressed by these commonly asked questions or in the index, contact Garmin (see the copyright page or back cover for contact information) or a Garmin-authorized dealer. Garmin is dedicated to supporting its products and customers. WHAT IS WAAS? EIS The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) uses a system of ground stations to correct any GPS signal errors.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW APPENDIX D For RAIM to work correctly, the GPS receiver must track at least five satellites. A minimum of six satellites is required to allow RAIM to eliminate a single corrupt satellite from the navigation solution. FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS RAIM ensures that satellite geometry allows for a navigation solution calculation within a specified protection limit (2.0 nm for oceanic and en route, 1.0 nm for terminal, and 0.3 nm for non-precision approaches).

SYSTEM OVERVIEW APPENDIX D WHEN DOES THE CDI SCALE CHANGE? When set to ‘Auto’ (default), the GPS CDI scale automatically adjusts to the desired limits based upon the current phase of flight (Figure 2-31, 2-32, 2-33, Table 2-2). FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS • When a departure procedure is active, the CDI is scaled for departure (0.3 nm). • The system switches from departure to terminal CDI scaling (1.
APPENDIX D SYSTEM OVERVIEW WHY DOES THE HSI NOT RESPOND LIKE A VOR WHEN OBS MODE IS ACTIVE? FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS Unlike a VOR, the CDI scale used on GPS equipment is based on the crosstrack distance to the desired course, not on the angular relationship to the destination. Therefore, the CDI deflection on the GPS is constant regardless of the distance to the destination and does not become less sensitive when further away from the destination.
